Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Pale greenish yellow. Cool aromas of lemon and lime ice and white flowers. Ripe but juicy and brisk, with nicely integrated acidity giving cut and lift to the lemon-lime flavo...

Wine Enthusiast: In its youth, this is intensely grassy, the grapefruit and green pepper flavors adding to the general crispness of the wine. It will be an attractive wine, full of pep, with a...

Wine Spectator: Light and silky, with pineapple and citrus flavors against toast and caramel notes, remaining fresh. Drink now through 2012. -HS

Burghound: Though the wood is hardly subtle, it's better integrated and allows more of the floral and orchard fruit aromas to shine through and it is also less evident on the big, powerf...

Burghound: Generous wood fights for center stage with the white flower, tidal pool and spice aromas that are followed by citrus and mineral-infused flavors that are attractively textured...

Burghound: In contrast to the prior three grands crus, the wood treatment is much more discreet if not invisible and more complementary to the white fruit, sea shell and iodine aromas th...

Burghound: Here there is also generous wood but what can be discerned about the underlying fruit is that it is cool and much more floral in character compared to the Bougros as it slides...

Wine Spectator: Dark and dense, with a juicy feel to the very ripe cherry, plum and exotic spice flavors. A flash of roasted red pepper adds interest to the finish. Drink now through 2016. -H...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2008 Martinet Bru is a bit more forward and elegant. It can be approached now but will benefit from another 2-3 years of cellaring. Mas Martinet is owned by Jose Luis P...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2008 Clos Martinet, like the Martinet Bru, is a bit more forward and graceful than its 2007 sibling. Nevertheless, it contains enough structure and balance to drink well f...

Wine Spectator: Candied cherry and milk chocolate mark this round, creamy red. This is well-structured, with some astringent tannins capping the finish. Should come around soon. Drink now thr...

Stephen Tanzer's IWC: Bright ruby. Seductively perfumed bouquet evokes black raspberry, cherry-cola, incense and Asian spices. Juicy, energetic red and dark berry flavors possess serious power bu...

Burghound: Here the wood is not subtle though it does not dominate the distinctly sauvage red currant and dark berry fruit aromas trimmed in earth and briar notes that are also reflected...

Wine Enthusiast: A light, silky, elegant wine, dry and spicy, with rich acidity framing complex raspberry, cherry, cola and toast flavors. Ready now.

Wine Spectator: Sleek and engaging, with ripe, supple, polished cherry, currant and dried berry flavors that glide across the palate, ending with gravel and spice box. Grenache, Syrah, Mourvè...

Ryan Moses: Transparent garnet core leading to a pale pink rim. Muted, yet classic nebbiolo nose with tar, licorice, and ripe red cherry aromas supported by faint notes of vanilla. The pa...

Wine Spectator: Lush and bordering on chocolate in flavor, delivering more typical tobacco and licorice notes and a touch of blackberry. This is dense, but in a chunky way rather than supple....

Wine Spectator: Gorgeous fruit up front-plum, black cherry and rose, with a touch of menthol-marries beautifully with the opulent texture in this alluring red. Lest you forget this is Barolo,...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate: The 2007 Barolo Cerretta is serious juice. This dark, imposing Barolo covers every inch of the palate with deep layers of dark Serralunga fruit. There is tremendous excitement...
